What’s New Version 1.12
This update from Apple will improve the functionality of this app. No new features are included.
New edit of primary video, 4h additional content.
Description
"Thorium" app details how thorium can be transformed into energy.
Nuclear bonds contains a million times the energy of chemical bonds. Thorium is abundant. Thorium can be converted into energy through nuclear fission. When doing so, thorium produces far less long-lived nuclear waste than fissioning uranium in today's reactors.
A series of educational videos first introduce thorium and the concept of fission, then contrast the use of thorium in a Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) against today's reactors, solar and wind.

Build 817762474v1.112016-06-15 03:37:28
Bug fix.
Build 817710905v1.102016-06-10 20:23:37
Finally, the addition of Thorium Remix 2016. This deprecates "Th" chapters and presents the Thorium story in a much improved narrative.
Build 711324638v1.092014-10-12 19:14:29
Added new video chapter. Deleted weakest video chapters. Resequenced chapters. Watching from start to finish now a very different experience.
Build 394092654v1.062014-02-20 05:39:13
Part 10 of "Th" thorium documentary now public. Latest iteration is included, and Th10 sharing enabled. Th10 is an hour in length. It covers past nuclear disasters: Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima. How can we make the safest nuclear reactor possible?
Build 369132631v1.052014-02-11 06:24:15
Th09 (Chapter 9 of "Th") flipped to Public. Sharing features enabled.
Iterated Th10, but still Unlisted. Sharing features still disabled. Th10 now over 1 hour in length... this is a bloated chapter with some repeated content. But narrative is mostly what I'm aiming for, and so feedback is now welcome.
Build 315852987v1.042014-01-22 06:18:11
Early edits of "Th" Part 9 and "Th" Part 10 are now watchable. Social sharing of Part 9 and Part 10 is disabled, and will not be enabled until those chapters are complete.
Build 167282650v1.032013-11-26 06:22:41
"Th" thorium documentary now has 8 chapters. Playlists are abandoned, as YouTube seems unable to support the feature reliably. Improved propagation tools. Updated for iOS7.
Build 15940846v1.0.22013-07-29 04:49:47
Better YouTube Playlist support for "Th" documentary.
Build 15626883v1.012013-06-22 00:43:54
Adjusted icon. 2 new videos: A tour of NASA Space Flight Center and David LeBlanc discussing advantages of Molten Salt Reactors [MSR].
